And I'm biased, but I think Kris will do the best out of all of them no matter who wins.


+1

Kris is actually my favorite one this year. Kid's got some talent to say the least. What he did with "She Works Hard For The Money" was incredible. I was also a big fan of his "Ain't No Sunshine."

He is very talented/creative but in a very humble, subdued way... I like that.

I kind of feel bad for his wife though. She's pretty and sweet and all but they're only, what, 22 or 23? I don't see it ending too well for them.

I know his mom and I won't get into details here but the wife had a hard time with it all at first. She trusts him, though and they come from a VERY Christian background.

That doesn't mean he won't be tempted and things won't tumble as their lives change so drastically, though. I feel bad for her, too.

I always wonder why people think THAT life is sooo much better for them. If you're single, hell yeah. I always love to see these people that are married with kids talking about a "better life." What they don't realize is "more money" doesn't equal "better life." I've read some articles where Chris Daughtry said that him becoming famous has caused way more bad in his life than good. Talked about how you have to be ready to completely stop making true friends and how hard it is to have a family while on the road.

I agree with you. I know she's supportive and wants Kris to succeed and live his dream but at the same time, deep down I'm sure she wishes things were the way they were when he was just a church worship leader in a little town in Arkansas.

I thought Kris was better than Adam last night, but the judges were still up Adam's arse saying he was god. Screw Adam

Aerosmith is going back on tour this summer. Take a look at how fast they sell out and tell me someone like them wouldn't make it big these days. The problem with "these days" to begin with is the complete GARBAGE that is put out mainstream.


SOO freaking true.

Danny is about as cheeseball as it gets. Nothing original, nothing creative.


As for Adam, how can you say he's trying to be someone else? Danny is trying just as hard to be "ultra-douche" but no one's giving him shite about it.

The whole Adam obsession reminds me of Fantasia. She sounded like a helium tank and had some horrendous arrangements but in the judges eyes it was awesome.

I think Adam has a great voice, hell he was on broadway so obviously he has talent. However, that screeching he does makes my ears bleed. & say when you want about his singing style, but homebody made Johnny Cash turn in his grave with that horrible rendition of "Ring of Fire"

Actually, that version has been done before. I thought the sitar was a fantastic addition. Also, his "Track of my Tears" was one of the best arrangements of any song ever done on Idol.

I guarantee you Cash would have enjoyed his rendition.

And did someone actually argue that Danny was original compared to Adam? Seriously? Danny seems like a good dude and all, but he sounds just like every song that came on 96.1 The River back when my mom used to have to drive me around everywhere.
